+ - The high-level API Packet Table (PT) did not write data correctly when
+ the datatype is a compound type that has string type as one of the
+ members. This problem started in 1.8.15, after the fix of HDFFV-9042
+ was applied, which caused the Packet Table to use native type to access
+ the data. It should be up to the application to specify whether the
+ buffer to be read into memory is in the machine's native architecture.
+ Thus, the PT is fixed to not use native type but to make a copy of the
+ user's provided datatype during creation or the packet table's datatype
+ during opening. If an application wishes to use native type to read the
+ data, then the application will request that. However, the Packet Table
+ doesn't provide a way to specify memory datatype in this release. This
+ feature will be available in future releases, HDFFV-10023.
